Great stay - will return

Really delightful stay. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Space is well decorated and clean. Rooftop was gorgeous and coffee at the downstairs restaurants was also good. I’ve stayed at a few hotels in Old Town that I did not particularly enjoy. I see this hotel becoming my go to when I’m in the area.

Thoughtfully curated design throughout the property. The staff was exceptionally friendly and handled our bike storage with real care and class, making us feel instantly at ease. Our room was beautifully appointed, featuring a huge, stunning shower, a well-stocked minibar, and smart, thoughtful touches like a bedside jewelry bowl. The plush, comfy bed made it easy to relax after a day of exploring. We can’t wait to come back!

Great location: But Everything was Closed

Great location, but consistently restaurants and bars weren’t open. For example, at noon, nothing was open, couldn’t get drinks or food at any of the 3 restaurants or bars on a Saturday. Additionally, in the room, there was no coffee. We were advised by staff to leave the hotel (while it was raining to get coffee) to get something.
